What did the sites look like before they were excavated?
Typically, unexcavated sites look like large mounds of sand and fill with the tops of the walls sticking up. Una Vida (behind the Visitor Center) is an example of an unexcavated great house. There are good photographs of Pueblo Bonito before excavation in Lister and Lister’s book “Chaco Canyon: Archaeology and Archaeologists.
